- antennas compatible with the modern radio-electronic device in microelectronic design, which have an efficiency of over 0.7 with a size of the aperture in the free space within 15 to 30 wavelengths and with an operating frequency range of at least Have 10%.
- these antennas must have a simple construction, low mass and thickness, a high degree of manufacturing suitability and reproducibility of dimensions and parameters.
- This slot antenna group contains an insulating substrate with wide slots or windows which are connected to a waveguide feed line network formed by ribbon cables.
- slot antenna group Since such a slot antenna group is implemented in printed circuit, it is suitable for production, has small mass and thickness, simple construction, high reproducibility of dimensions and parameters.
- the given antenna group is characterized by relatively high losses in the waveguide feed line network, and with an aperture size within 15 to 30 wavelengths in free space and with an operating frequency range of at least 10%, its efficiency does not exceed 0.6.
- the waveguide feed line network of this antenna group is made up of ribbon cables that have moving losses in the range of 0.05 to 0.1 dB / cm.
- waveguide slot antenna array made of waveguides (DI Woskresensky et. Al. "Antenny i ustroistwa SWT.ggiirowanie fazirowannykh antennykh reshetok", 1981, publisher "Radio i svyz” (Moscow), pp. 126 to 128 known.
- the waveguide slot radiators and the waveguide feed line network are made of hollow metal waveguides.
- Such a slot antenna group is highly efficient under the conditions mentioned because the losses in the waveguide slot radiators and the waveguide feed line network are minimal and do not exceed 0.001 dB / cm.
- the antenna group is not intended for production, because its manufacture provides for a large amount of non-progressive mechanical assembly work which does not result in the required reproducibility of the dimensions and parameters of the antenna group.
- the use of the hollow metal waveguide has the consequence that the antenna group has a large mass, thickness and a high metal expenditure.
- Each waveguide slot radiator is formed by mounting a plate, which is made of a sheet with radiation slots made therein and serves as a front bulkhead of this radiator, with the base in which as a waveguide of each waveguide slot radiator, a rectangular groove to form two narrow walls and one Back wide wall of this waveguide slot radiator is executed.
- the waveguide feed line network is made up of hollow metal waveguides.
- Such a flat slot antenna group is highly efficient under the conditions mentioned because the losses in the waveguides of the waveguide slot radiators and in the waveguides of the waveguide feed line network are minimal.
- such an antenna group has a greater mass and thickness than the antenna groups in printed circuit. This is essentially due to the fact that a metal base for the waveguide of the waveguide slot radiators, which has a large mass and thickness, is used in the construction of the given group, and the use of a waveguide feed line network made of metal waveguides increases the mass and thickness of this antenna group even more .
- the invention has for its object to provide a flat slot antenna group in which a simple and reliable construction, small thickness and mass, a high level of manufacturing reliability for this antenna group are ensured by a design change in the waveguide slot radiators while maintaining high efficiency in a wide frequency range .
- the area slot antenna group which has a series of waveguide slot radiators with a rear wall and a front bulkhead, in each of which exciter coupling slots and radiation slots are made and which are located in the respective two parallel planes, and a waveguide feed line network has, the waveguide power distributor and feed waveguide, the channels of which are connected to the excitation coupling slots, according to the invention, the waveguide slot radiator tape line waveguide, which are a common insulating substrate included, the back of which is coated with a metallization layer, which acts as a common back-wide wall of the waveguide slot radiators, each end-wide wall of which is a ribbon cable of alternating wide and narrow sections, which is produced on the end face of the insulating substrate.
- the construction of the waveguide slot radiators is fundamentally a printed insulating substrate, on one side of which a row of end broad walls of printed ribbon cable waveguide slot radiators in the form of ribbon cables made of alternating wide and narrow sections and on the other side of which a common back Broad wall of this stripline waveguide slot radiator is generated in the form of a metallization layer.
- the waveguide slot radiators are designed in the form of a unitary component - an insulating substrate with end broad walls of the printed waveguide slot radiators on one side and a thin metalization layer on the other.
- the thickness and the mass of such a component are small, its construction is simple and safe.
- the antenna group has a small mass and thickness, its construction is simple and reliable.
- the surface slot antenna group under consideration has a high efficiency of over 0.7 with a size of the aperture that moves in free space within limits of 15 to 30 wavelengths and with an operating frequency range of at least 10%. This is due to the fact that the waveguide slot radiators of this antenna group are made up of ribbon waveguides, which are actually rectangular waveguides, which have a dielectric are filled, from which the substrate is made, and the losses in such band line waveguides are within limits of 0.2 to 0.03 dB / cm and reduce the efficiency of the antenna group insignificantly.
- the waveguide feed line network prefferably be arranged on the metallization layer, which is a common broad wall of the feed waveguide and the waveguide power distributor.
- the waveguide feed line network contains a base in which rectangular grooves are made, the surfaces of which form channels of the waveguide feed line network with the surface of the metallization layer.
- Such a construction makes it possible to obtain rectangular waveguides on the base of the waveguide feed line network, on which feed waveguides and waveguide power distributors in the form of, for example, H waveguides can be easily implemented, which enables all waveguides of the waveguide feed line network to be installed in the base same level, which in turn reduces the thickness of the antenna group.
- the longitudinal axes of the ribbon cable waveguides are parallel and the distance between the longitudinal axes of the adjacent ribbon cable waveguides is smaller than the wavelength in free space at the highest frequency and greater than the sum of 1/12 of this wavelength and the transverse dimension of the broad one Section of the ribbon cable is.
- each exciter coupling slot vary within a range of approximately 0.8 to approximately 1.0 of the transverse dimension of the narrow section of the ribbon cable.
- the design of the length of each slot below 0.8 the transverse dimension of the narrow section of the ribbon line does not allow sufficient coupling to be achieved between the waveguide slot radiators made of ribbon line waveguides and the feed waveguides of the waveguide feed line network.
- making the length of each slot above 1.0 the transverse dimension causes parasitic radiation from the ribbon cable waveguide, which causes losses and reduces the efficiency of this antenna group.

- the number of waveguide slot radiators 1, the radiation slots 8, the feed waveguide 13 and the waveguide power distributor 14 is selected depending on the required size of the aperture D of the antenna group and on the operating frequency range.
- the antenna group works as follows.
- the signal received by the antenna group via the radiation slots 8 reaches each waveguide slot radiator 1 and spreads in the direction of the longitudinal axis O1-O1 of the ribbon waveguide 1a in the form of a wave, the type of which is close to the H type.
- the alternating narrow and wide sections 6 and 7 of the ribbon cable 5 form an end bulkhead 5a of the ribbon cable waveguide 1a.
